Sunday, February 7, 2016: GOP Presidential candidate Donald Trump will hold a campaign rally in Plymouth, NH at Plymouth State University at ALLWell North. The event is scheduled to begin at 1:00 PM EST.
Trump moves more inland today for an early rally, and again it's at a small venue.
Here's some interesting history.
This was the case in every New England state. The early settlers drove the Indians out physically during the Queen Anne's War. Plymouth was originally the site of an Abenaki village that was burned to the ground by Captain Thomas Baker in 1712.
In 1806, then-lawyer Daniel Webster lost his first criminal case at the Plymouth courthouse, which now houses the Historical Society. The author Nathaniel Hawthorne, while on vacation in 1864 with former U.S. President Franklin Pierce, died in Plymouth at the second Pemigewasset House, which was later destroyed by fire in 1909. In the early 20th century, the Draper and Maynard Sporting Goods Company (D&M) sold products directly to the Boston Red Sox, and players such as Babe Ruth would regularly visit to pick out their equipment.

Trumposaurus speaks plain..though his mind is so mercurial, sometimes it gets ahead of his mouth, and he drops a few words to “catch up”.
Teddy IS not just creepy, he’s a liar and an EVIL WEASEL.
It’s because he’s a Gemini. :
I think that was called Lily of the Valley. I vaguely remember it...from my grandmother’s collection.
She loved lavender soap, as well.
He also has his ascendant in Leo..
V.C.S sells Tweed, too!
Yeah. One year my boss’ wife bought “Estee” by Estee Lauder for me for Christmas. It was horrid; I could not wear it. Couldn’t get the smell out of my head for a week.
For the “oldies”, I liked Wind Song. Faves now are Joy, Blue Grass, and Ombre Rose (which is no longer made).
We have lots of soap makers here so I still use some of those heritage fragrances!
“I wore Tweed as a young woman. And then it just disappeared.”
Vermont Country Store sells Tweed.
;-)
What sign is his moon in ?
One has a French name. IIRC
I am NOT putting a stamp on the envelope and I'm filling it up and sending it back!
Loved that soap....the beautiful lavender scent was everywhere. Seems like it was made in London/England....can’t recall the brand, now. Can picture the label, though.
What sign is his moon in ?
LOL.
Yardley?
Ester Lauder is/was horrid, and some people must’ve soaked in it. Used to kill my contact lenses to be around those ladies.
I think that was it!
Yardley Lavender.
Thanks :)
His moon is in Sagittarius. The Archer goes for the kill.
Yardley?
